The american stores are aimed at the comfort of the customer, however the austrslian stores are very comercial based and aren't as customer friendly as its american cousins.
I simply loved going shopping at the amercian super store when I was travelling, the customer service was fantastic, where as the service here leaves alot to be desired, unless your seeking attitude with a smile.
A lot of the leftist kooks like to slam Wal Mart as some evil wretched corporation(they've been successful), but the fact is for many small rural communities Wal Mart provides a very useful service.
Last time I was in NZ, US Airways was too lazy to take my bag over to Qantas so I landed in NZ without clothes. I went to K Mart in North Auckland somewhere and I gotta say the jeans I bought were about the cheapest piece of clothing I have ever seen. I've never seen anything that bad on sale in the USA.
my right wing nut job friends also pan Walmart when they'r enot wearing their tin foil hats. And last I checked US Air and Qantas don't have a partnershp so they really weren't lazy re your luggage. Airlines aren't obligated to take your luggage to a connecting lflight, unless they're code sharing. Qantas did not take my luggage to Jetblue for my domestic leg from JFK.. I didn't expect them to as they're not travel partners.
